‘Biggest Poison Chalice in Video Games,’ Says Shattered Memories Author of Silent Hill 2
Silent Hill: Shattered Memories and Silent Hill: Origins author Sam Barlow has commented on the difficulty of remaking Silent Hill 2, a task developer Bloober Team is reportedly close to completing.
Barlow was candid about his feelings on the matter during an interview with PCGamesN at GDC 2023, calling the task “the biggest poison chalice in video games, doing a remaster of Silent Hill 2.”
Barlow acknowledges the difficulty of pleasing diehard fans by saying, “I mean, good luck to them because I don’t know how you can do that without upsetting people,” when discussing the necessity of updating older games for modern audiences.
Despite his enthusiasm for the series as a whole, Barlow admits that “personally, I’m less excited about playing a remaster” than he is for upcoming entries like Silent Hill F and Silent Hill: Townfall. Despite the fact that Silent Hill 2 is a complete remake of the 2001 cult classic, Barlow repeatedly calls Bloober Team’s work a “remaster.”
Do you agree with Barlow’s assessment? Is Silent Hill 2 one of those cases where you’ll be in hot water no matter what you do?
The latest trailer for Sony Pictures Entertainment’s CGI film Resident Evil: Death Island, released July 25, features the outlandish action and melodrama that made the franchise a cult sensation.
This Resident Evil Avengers-esque team-up features Leon S. Kennedy, Jill Valentine, Chris Redfield, Claire Redfield, and Rebecca Chambers.
The T-Virus and killer whales take the gang to Alcatraz in San Francisco Bay, where a new nightmare awaits. In magnificent slow motion and with progressively heavier ordinance, the Dream Team will supposedly destroy zombies, Lickers, mutant orcas, and anything else foolish or nasty enough to stand in their path.
In a horrific new video, Dr. Fetus’ Mean Meat Machine is coming to PS4 and PS4 on June 22. Expect agony and tight gameplay from independent wizards Team Meat, well known for their pioneering, tough-as-ham platformer Super Meat Boy.
This “mean meat machine” reimagines your grandpa’s old black-and-white puzzle games for a younger, hipper, more bloodthirsty audience. We’re delighted the wait won’t be long for this one.
Super Meat Boy fan? Team Meat?
Diablo 4’s post-launch support will keep you playing for years, according to Blizzard. General manager Rod Fergusson confirmed two expansions and free content updates.
“As I sit here, we’re about to launch the main game; we’re finishing up season one; we’re working on season two; we’re working on expansion one; we’re kicking off expansion two,” he told PC Gamer on the Kinda Funny Xcast. These two DLCs may release sooner than expected. Fergusson says the live service model lets Blizzard release content faster than Diablo III.
With tens of hours of content in the base game, Diablo 4 is massive. This could be Destiny 2 or Genshin Impact, with seasons and DLC. That thought excites or frightens you. Leave a comment and check out our Diablo 4 guide for help with the PS5 and PS4 games.
